Pat Van Dyke is a drummer, composer, producer, and band leader. Equally comfortable behind the drum kit, as he is penning compositions at the Fender Rhodes, PVD balances the rhythmic intensity of true-school hip hop with the rich harmony & refreshing subtlety of jazz. Drawing from a diverse palette of sounds, Pat's music features live instrumentation alongside analog synthesizers, lush horns, and vintage keyboards, straddling the boundaries of electronic music, jazz, and golden era hip-hop.

Pat's music has been praised by tastemakers and DJs around the globe such as Gilles Peterson, Bobbito Garcia, & DJ Spinna.

These remixes are an excellent addition to the already classic Let The Horns Blow originals!

"Pat Van Dyke, an all-instrumental record that puts the drummer-producer’s knack for genre-bending on full display."

"What I perceive the record to be is a jazz record that's probably produced by someone young enough to be raised on hip-hop. There's records that scream at you to play them, this record just kind of yells, 'Yo, play me."
DJ Bobbito Garcia

"A warm and comfortable environment for a rap fan, while still adventurous (and gorgeous) enough to qualify as jazz."
